I would like to know if anyone has used these boots for anything other than skiing? I love these boots for A/T and backcountry skiing due to their light weight factor. I am curious if they would serve well as a single pitch ice climbing boot or single day mountaineering with crampons?

They are heavy and clunky compared to mountaineering boots. However, with the lugged soles scrambling around on rock isn't all that bad. Using boot crampons isn't bad, you just need to make sure you get a good fit. And why go anywhere in these boots and snow unless you're skiing? Really, why go anywhere without skis?
